Psychologist, PhD

Sometimes we encounter challenges in our lives that seem too large to face alone. It is at these times that we can benefit from talking with a therapist. Psychotherapy can help you face those challenges, work through problems, and grow in the process. I offer individual and couples psychotherapy for emotional problems, life transitions, relationship difficulties, substance use issues,
trauma
, chronic illness, and issues related to sexuality and sexual health. I also specialize in working with Veterans.
Helen Reiss
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
My work is deeply
trauma
-informed.
These challenging times can strain our abilities to cope. You may find you are more fatigued or more irritable; many are feeling the stress in important relationships. It's a good time to get some consultation and support. I believe that healing starts with self compassion. I can help you to cultivate a compassionate curiosity that honors your strengths and explores the areas where you would like to change and grow.

Relax. Stay awhile. You deserve to feel heard and understood. I help lgbtqia clients in their 20s & 30s understand relationships and build closer, more loving connections. Are you feeling alone? Stuck in the same old relationship patterns? Want to deepen your communication? Anxiety about dating? Many of us have blocks to feeling close with others. In a cis-hetero-patriarchal world, many of us have survived interpersonal
trauma
. But healing is possible. Together, we got this. Now, let's get to work.
Sophie Bell
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
I specialize in supporting people as they navigate the impact of stress,
trauma
, loss, and life transitions. Our minds and bodies can react to life’s stressors in a range of ways, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties. We all rely on methods of coping that, over time, may become more harmful than helpful. Our work will help you better understand the source of these struggles and put you on a path towards the health, happiness, and fulfillment that you deeply deserve.

I have extensive experience working with adults who have problems with mental illness, addiction, depression, anxiety and
trauma
.
I am a bilingual/bi-cultural therapist; able to do therapy in both English/Spanish. I strongly believe in a holistic approach to mental health: psychological-physical-spiritual development are all integral aspects of emotional well-being. I am sensitive to inter-generational conflicts that arise due to acculturation issues.

Are you feeling a diminished sense of self-confidence? Are you feeling that the way you view yourself is keeping you from experiencing life fully and/or causing you suffering? Are you experiencing nightmares, flashbacks, anxiety, depression, fears, anger, impaired concentration, difficulties at work, school or home? If you answered "yes" to any question, you may be reacting to
trauma
.
Kate McGuire
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, EMDR
Verified
I utilize EMDR therapy when indicated to treat a range of mental health symptoms congruent with
trauma
, anxiety, panic, depression, and grief.
Being human is hard; that is an undeniable fact. Life is full of immense joy and gut wrenching heartache, high highs and low lows. I wholeheartedly believe that one of the most powerful benefits of being engaged in therapy is that you don’t have to face life alone. People are wired for connection and it is my mission for my clients to feel seen, heard, and deeply cared for in my presence. I work with adult individuals and couples to explore where they are in life, how they got there, and where they would like to go.

Art Therapist, LCAT, ATR, MPS

While my specialty is within the LGBTQIA+ community, I welcome people of all gender identities and orientations, and have extensive experience in working with addiction,
trauma
, anxiety and interpersonal challenges.
My ideal client is someone who is open to using the creative process to give visual shape to thoughts, feelings and experiences that may be difficult to put into words. Collaboratively, we can identify goals and use visual art as well as talk therapy to promote insight, development of coping strategies, and behavior and stress management. As a non-binary therapist, shared experiences allow us to establish a trusting therapeutic relationship as we connect with someone who understands our unique needs in a way that enables growth through self-expression, self-awareness, and self-empowerment.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LMSW, LSW
Verified
I have experience supporting clients of various backgrounds struggling with
trauma
, anxiety, depression and bipolar 2 disorder.
Fighting life’s many challenges can feel like a never ending battle, especially when feelings of hopelessness and frustration take over. Perhaps you’re feeling stuck, or misunderstood or maybe you just want someone to talk to who listens and understands. You’re probably sick and tired of having to be “strong” all the time, and it’s left you feeling drained. You deserve to be heard—to be validated—to be seen.

Verified
For the past several years, I have specialized in working with people who have experienced
trauma
, which has shown me the incredible strength that we all have and our remarkable ability to heal.
Finding a therapist is hard. What criteria do you base your decision on? Degrees, years in practice, areas of expertise, commute... But what a profile and your research cannot tell you, happens to be the most important criteria: if the two of you will "fit.” The best and quickest way to know for certain is to schedule the appointment.
Caitlin Cote
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
Psychotherapy is a vital co-created process meant to bring about transformative shifts in perspective, identify and heal from sources of
trauma
, dislodge emotional pain, and break maladaptive yet habitual patterns of being oneself.
Do you find yourself ignoring, distracting or willing away a pervasive sense of loss, emptiness, or general dissatisfaction with yourself or life? Do you hear your internal voice saying, “get over it, someone always has it worse,” or “you don’t have an excuse to feel sad or dissatisfied when there’s nothing wrong with your life?” If you can relate, then I give you credit for having the courage, strength and vulnerability required to seek out answers about yourself and possessing the desire to improve.
Kristen Mercado

My specialties include difficult life transitions, traumatic stress, and challenges such as serious medical issues, divorce, and the lifelong impact of childhood
trauma
.
Supportive therapy is an open, honest place to feel safe, heard, and understood. Allowing space for creativity and humor is important as we work together to meet your needs without fear of judgement or rejection. Therapy is a dynamic conversation with a supportive guide helping you move out of a comfort zone and into a growth zone. I specialize in addressing anxiety,
trauma
, and family conflicts, as well as working with those trying therapy for the first time. I bring empathy, compassion, integrity and a lot of personality to my practice!
Nathalie Wagner
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
My specialties include working with individuals who have experienced
trauma
, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.
I believe that a trusting therapist-patient relationship is key to helping you achieve the growth and change you are looking for. Success in therapy occurs when you learn more about yourself, your thoughts, and your feelings. I aim to facilitate this process through an active, empathic, non-judgmental approach. We will work together to identify your own unique goals for therapy, help you access and use your individual strengths, and navigate the challenges that might be getting in your way.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, CASAC

I am also a trained EMDR therapist who helps patients process
trauma
and painful life experiences.
Therapy can be intimidating and finding the "right" therapist can be a difficult process. I believe that seeking psychotherapy is a step towards implementing change and wellness in one's life. I truly care about my patients and I work collaboratively with them to improve the quality of their lives, self-awareness and forming connections. I pride myself in being accommodating, compassionate, engaging, strength based and culturally competent practioner. I have experience working with many people of different cultural and religious backgrounds. I have also worked with a multitude of different diagnoses.
Manuela Stalman
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LMSW
Verified
I approach therapy through a
trauma
-informed, strengths-based, identity affirming lens.
Each of us has become who we are by way of our life experiences. Reflecting and offering insight along the way, my hope is to support you as you get to know yourself more deeply and develop tools to enhance your wellbeing. I believe some days we need direct, honest feedback and other days we need a compassionate, tender listener. It is my intention to adapt to your needs as they shift while cultivating a space where you can share without fear of judgement.
